Visa requirements for Taiwan citizens traveling to Russia

ℹ️Important Notes & Requirements

• ❖The scope of application covers the entire territory of Russia, with a visa validity period of 60 days and a stay period of 16 days. The visa fee is $40, and children under 6 years old are free of charge. Several closed cities and regions in Russia require special authorization. For visiting Crimea, visas issued by Russia are required. Russia signed the "Shared Values Visa" law on August 19, 2024, aimed at simplifying the residence permits for citizens of countries that do not conform to Russia's traditional spirit and values. This means that one can obtain a three-month temporary residency without passing the exam. The focus of this law is to simplify the residence permit for foreign citizens with traditional Russian spirit and values. As long as they comply with Russian values, foreign citizens do not need to prove their knowledge of Russian language, Russian history, or Russian law (without examination), and can obtain a temporary residence permit for three months. By simplifying the process, more people can be attracted to settle in Russia, and these foreign citizens must come from countries that oppose Russian values. This list applies to 47 regions, including Taiwan.
